Spreading the Vegan Message through Film & Music
Today, we talk to Mischa Hedges, the Producer/Director of the film Sustainable Table. Over nine months of production, he found that the standard methods of producing food do not take environmental or human health costs into consideration. He also explored the many alternatives to the current agricultural system. Lance has been a life-long musician, who plays guitar, piano, drums, trumpet, mandolin and more. Lance's new CD Pasture Prime is a one-of-a-kind personalized album that will have you laughing, thinking, and growing as a human being.
All that and more on Vegan World Radio! today.
